An Analysis of G.E.M. Anscombe's Modern Moral Philosophy - Paperback

by Jonny Blamey (Author), Jon W. Thompson (Author)

Anscombe's 1958 paper challenged the very foundations of moral philosophy, the discipline that tries to understand and differentiate between actions, right and wrong. It argues that moral philosophy should not be explored until a philosophy of psychology is already in place, and that, without a belief in God, morality can have no absolute rules.
